The centre of gravity for a giraffe is almost in the middle of it's stomach but closer to
the front. That is why the giraffe can slide down and not tip
over.(http://www.answers.com/Q/Where_is_the_giraffes_center_of_gravity&altQ=Whe

The locomotion of a giraffe consists of two gaits. Giraffes either walk or gallop. When galloping, this animal
maintains its balance through the back and forth movement of its head and neck.
